Devin Casimir

Eighth Grade, John F. Kennedy Middle

Devin knew the right thing to do when handling a crisis situation. During class, a student had a seizure and Devin immediately stood up and cleared the way while other students laughed and attempted to record the situation on their phone. Instead of joining his peers, Devin told his peers to stop and then assisted the teacher in rolling the student to their side and calming the situation. Instead of behaving like other students in his class, Devin demonstrated maturity, compassion, and care for his fellow classmate.
